The main reason for this disappointment: salary

Job dissatisfaction
does
not originate, then, in the idea of working but in the
characteristics of your current job,"

"Salaries, with 30%, stand out as the main reason for the negative appreciation;
at a time when week after week we record their depreciation," adds the executive.

the workplace

When people are asked about the way they would work, 27% say it would be with
more freedom regarding schedules
;
24% would create their own organization or venture;
20% with
less pressure
and enjoying what they do more;
